About this venue

Located in the French Quarter, Kingsway is a legendary 12,000 square foot private residence designed beautifully by Los Angeles based LM Pagano, architect Wayne Troyer and owner Sean Cummings. This iconic Italianate building is nationally recognized, with features in the New York Times, Robb Report and Louisiana Homes and Gardens, among other press. As with each of Cummings’ boutique hotels and lofts, here one finds great beauty infused with great meaning. Historic, classic and timeless design evocative of this intriguing PLACE. Yet, modern sensibilities, reflective of a new TIME, with new talent and new ideas fueling this city.

Kingsway

Historic, classic and timeless design evocative of this intriguing place.

Kingsway is a 12,000-square foot private residence that is generously rented out for private events by owner, Sean Cummings. The property has an expressively rich history as it was previously Kingsway Studios, owned by legendary music producer Daniel Lanois. To name but a few, Beck, U2, Pearl Jam, Bob Dylan, and Peter Gabriel have recorded (and often been housed) in Kingsway Studios.
